1. Fragrance industry
Application scenarios: commonly used to prepare floral and fruity flavors, giving sweet or almond-like aromas, suitable for perfumes, cosmetics, detergents and food flavors (must meet safety standards).
Example: As a supplementary ingredient for vanilla, cherry and other flavors, although its application is not as extensive as the para-isomer (vanillin), it has a unique aroma level.
2. Pharmaceutical intermediates
Drug synthesis: used to prepare antibiotics, antifungal drugs and cardiovascular drugs. For example, as a structural unit, it participates in condensation reactions to synthesize active molecules containing methoxybenzene rings.
Pesticides/agrochemicals: may be used as intermediates for herbicides or insecticides, and the biological activity is enhanced by functional group modification.
3. Organic synthesis
Reaction platform: aldehyde groups can participate in oxidation (to generate carboxylic acids), reduction (to generate alcohols), condensation (such as Aldol reaction), etc., and are used to construct complex molecules (such as chiral compounds or polymer monomers).
